Are you afraid that it will break or kill you? If you struggle with panic attacks or panic disorder, you may be gripped by a very common fear You may be afraid that one day you will have a panic attack so big so intense so severe that there is permanent impact The most common variations on this theme revolve around panic or in high anxiety that simply never ends or that trigger a Psychotic break or slide into insanity This is the ultimate panic attack. Do you fear this ultimate panic attack? Are you afraid that you will wind up in a state of insanity or permanent torture? So many members of our community harbor this fear So many live each day in a state of hypervigilance always scanning the horizon for the approaching threat Bracing holding on knowing that surrender and acceptance is the way But unable to bring themselves to truly let go for fear that they will be overtaken once and for all by the ultimate panic attack Well, let me give you some good news No such panic attack exists. It never has There is no such thing as permanent panic and no direct path from a panic attack to a state of insanity or psychosis I am aware that at its peak panic will often have you believing that you are mere nanoseconds from snapping and completely losing control of your Mind and or body. I know how that feels. It's quite terrifying However, that fear does not have any connection to any real potential outcome Ultimate panic that never ends or drives one to insanity simply does not exist No matter how much you fear that it does or feel that you are inches away from it I can tell you this a thousand times over the next four days You may believe me and feel relieved temporarily But as it is so often said in this community when the panic hits everything I know goes out the window The minute you sense signs or signals of rising anxiety, you will forget what I told you and your fear will return So how can you finally believe once and for all that all your fear of the ultimate panic attack is unfounded? Sadly you will believe this once you let the ultimate panic come and get you then experience repeated outcomes where it does not Let go allow the worst outcome then it never happens and then repeat Over time you will finally believe that there was no such thing as the ultimate panic attack And you will lose the belief and fear of permanent torture or insanity Right now. You're probably cursing me under your breath. I knew he was gonna say that Well, of course I was but that is always the way.
